• You’ll liaise with Legal and, when required, external authorities regarding export inquiries and case escalations.
• You’ll maintain dashboards and case pipelines, providing concise briefings and monthly reporting on trends, hotspots, and recovered funds.
• You’ll collaborate with IT and Data teams to design practical automation rules, watchlists, and pattern-based alerts.

Skills and Qualifications
